Addressing and Reducing Violence: Strengths-based Strategies that Work

ID: 1333WEB

Historically, most prevention efforts have focused too much on admonishment and knowledge transfer, despite years of evidence that such programs are ineffective. Effective prevention must be grounded in a broad understanding of what works, what does not, and how different forms of risky behavior share common elements. In this webinar we introduce a new model, the prevention portfolio model. This incorporates strategies from across many disciplines including behavioral economics and public health to create strengths-based practices for addressing violence, substance abuse, risky sexual behavior, and related problems. The webinar will help participants re-imagine prevention with protective factors at the center. We will present specific actionable steps practitioners can take to integrate material into their work.

Anti-Oppressive Practice is Violence Prevention Work

ID: 1310WEB

This webinar explores the ways that racism and oppression have shaped anti-violence movements and how we can dismantle these in our own work with clients, within our organizations and in our communities. Participants will discuss how systemic racism, intergenerational racial trauma and more shape survivor experiences and the ways in which the white mainstream violence against women movement have perpetuated these harms. Facilitators will guide participants through a self-assessment of individual and organizational practices and provide action steps to incorporating actively anti-racist, anti-oppressive principles into their everyday work as a form of primary violence prevention. This webinar was developed using an intersectional lens and seeks to amplify and prioritize voices of BIPOC, LGBTQ+ and other marginalized participants.

Unwanted Consensual Sex: Treating the Silent Sexual Trauma

ID: 5363WEB

Sexual consent has gotten renewed attention since the “me too” movement gave women permission to openly discuss the sexual abuse they were suffering in silence. What the consent conversation does not address is the very common experience many women have of consenting to have sex they do not want. Unwanted consent, or sex without desire, is the cause of many emotional and physical symptoms that are often blamed on something else. This webinar will define unwanted consent, explore the reasons it happens, and provide participants with a plan to help our clients identify and process the negative impact of agreeing to have unwanted sex.
